Sunday Mills is located in a beautiful spot along the River Wandle in Earlsfield, South West London. It’s one of the rare places in London that has a village feel, while still being so accessible.

Co-living is a way of renting that brings people together. You get your own lovely private studio and access to incredible shared spaces like a gym, co-working space and roof terraces. Plus, at Folk we take care of the admin and give you everything, from utitlities and WiFi to council tax and events, included in one easy bill. It’s renting made better. 

Our minimum stay is for three months and maximum 12 months. But you can renew as you wish, so however long suits you!

Your bills are all-inclusive – that covers utilities and council tax, superfast WiFi, a weekly events programme, and access to a gym, cinema room and co-working spaces at no extra cost.

Hit the button in the top right of this page and we’ll get you booked in for a virtual or in-person tour at a time that works for you.

When you reserve your studio you'll pay a £200 holding fee, which is fully redeemable against your first month's rent. Once you're living with us your bill is all-inclusive and is paid monthly by Direct Debit, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

Absolutely, we have a number of DDA rooms suitable for those with acessibility needs. If you're interested in finding out more, please submit our 'contact us' enquiry form, or give us a call on 020 7078 7062. 

Sadly, as much as we love pets, we’re not able to be pet-friendly just yet. However, we do permit guide dogs that are registered with Assistance Dogs International (ADI) or The International Guide Dog Foundation (IGDF).

You sure can. Our studios and shared spaces are roomy enough for living with your partner. There’s just an additional cost of £250 per month for couples.

Whilst our studios are perfect for couples, we don't allow more than two people to live in each studio. We also don't accept any residents under the age of 18. 

Our first home is The Palm House in Harrow and our second home, Sunday Mills, is in Earlsfield. Our newest home, Florence Dock, is found perched on the River Thames in Battersea.

All our studios come with a built-in wardrobe and under-bed storage, as well as plenty of cupboard space. Our bigger studios do have more storage, so if you're worried about space we recommend you go for one of those, or you can add on an additional storage unit on our lower ground floor for £25 per month. 

Our homes are designed to give you the perfect balance of private and communal space. You’ll have your own fully-contained studio apartment but you’ll also share spaces like a gym, lounge, co-working space and cinema. Everything’s newly designed and focused on comfort. If there’s an issue, we’re on-site 24/7 to fix it right away (not like your usual landlords…).

Each shared space in a Folk home is designed to be enjoyed with others. At The Palm House in Harrow, head to the huge co-working space or community kitchen in your own time. At Sunday Mills in Earlsfield, there’s a comfortable living room for relaxing and a state-of-the-art gym and studio for working up a sweat. And at Florence Dock you can soak up the sunset with panoramic views of London from one of our five terraces or tuck yourself away with a good read in the Snug. Wherever you are, make the most of the spaces by joining our calendar of weekly social events.

All our studios come furnished, so you'll get a double bed, table and stool, a kitchenette with combi microwave/oven, hob and fridge freezer, and a fully-fitted ensuite bathroom. Our studios don't come with bedding or cooking equipment, so you can either bring your own, or buy them straight from us. Our bedding packs are £60 and our kitchen packs are £80 each. 

Absolutely. We know remote working is so important, so in every Folk home we’ve got a huge co-working space made for residents to work from.
